Join this interactive online discussion featuring historian and author Dr. Joseph Fitzgerald, and moderated by Dr. Angela Campbell, Vice President of IMCC. The program explores the lives and legacies of Black women organizers Gloria Richardson and Barbara Smith, centering Black women’s leadership, student activism and coalition-building across social justice movements. Drawing connections between the Cambridge Movement in Cambridge, Maryland, and student activism in Holyoke, Massachusetts, the discussion examines how past struggles for civil rights, women’s civil liberties, and community accountability continue to shape contemporary movements for justice and freedom. By linking historical and present-day activism, the program invites the community to reflect on its own traditions of social justice engagement and to consider the ongoing responsibilities of allyship, accountability and collective action in dismantling systemic oppression. Free and open to the public. RSVP for the Zoom link.
